Biological benefits of Arginine supplements other than "pump"?

FishOrCutBait · 07-12-2005, 02:28 PM

I need to find out swiftly, as I have to order tonight... Are there any sort of actual benefits of arginine supps, AND would I be better off buying name brand items, such as nitrix, or should I continue buying bulk?

Nitrous Malate from www.customnutritionwarehouse.com.

I don't know for sure if there is a benefit other than better pumps and vascularity, but the science behind it sounds logical...increasing the body's nitrogen retention and increasing the O2 flow to the muscles.

I've heard a lot about it lowering your blood pressure.

LAM says that some people claim it can stretch the muscle faschia, but static stretching is MUCH more able to do that... and stretching is free... lol
